A wonderfully detailed toile print with a mysterious, exotic atmosphere. Tigers, elephants, and other wild animals wander through an intricate landscape of trees and lush vegetation, all illustrated in delicate, engraving-style lines. The muted lavender illustrations against a dark, plum-toned background give this classic safari scene an unexpected romantic twist. A beautiful statement print that feels both vintage and a little adventurous.
Hand & Drape
Made from fine, high-count cotton lawn, this fabric is lightweight at approximately 100gsm, with a soft, fluid drape. Unlike crisp cotton poplin, it falls gently and moves beautifully, making it especially suitable for garments with a relaxed silhouette. Despite its light weight, the fabric is not see-through.
Suggested Projects
Beautiful for flowing dresses, relaxed blouses, gathered skirts, and elegant button-up shirts. The intricate animal illustrations would look particularly lovely on a long-sleeved shirt dress or a softly gathered midi dress. With 3 meters in one piece, there's plenty of room for a more substantial sewing project.
